Charter

The CWOL Naval Academy offers instruction at the tactical (ship/squdron) and operational levels which can be used by either nation in its training program. This instruction includes one interactive exercise in the processes of planning and executing an amphibious landing in GQ plus information about ACW era naval doctrine. The cadre of the Academy will assist in the processing and administration of the instruction as coordinated by the Secretary of Navy. However, the formulation of the national training program, supplemental mentoring and/or remedial instruction is the responsibility of the appointed Inspector General.

Utilization of the Naval Academy

While the nature of the Naval Academy is one of de-centralized execution, there will need to be coordination effected if a national training program wants to use the interactive exercise or seeks supplemental support. To standardize the procedures for support see the guidelines listed below.

The Naval Academy will support any national training program provided:

assistance is requested
appropriate advance notice is made to the cadre
there are no conflicts identified by the cadre upon receiving the request for assistance

The national Inspector General must:

request support for executing the exercise
identify the start and stop dates of the exercise
specify the turn frequency of the exercise (1x, 2x, or 3x per week)
perform Super User functions for the exercise

The exercise GA will:

run the turn(s)
post the exercise Battle News to a Web Site
provide a "ground truth" map for the Inspector General, if requested
provide an archive file of the exercise to the Inspector General

The exercise GA can stop the exercise without notice for player non-compliance of game procedure or failure of player participation
